Panorama Respected research institute to get major make-over, focus on groundbreaking projects
The Research Institute of Fish Culture and Hydrobiology in Vodňany, South Bohemia (a centre with a long and respected history and part of the University of South Bohemia’s Faculty of Fisheries and Protection of Waters) will soon get a major make-over to the tune of 370 million crowns. Roughly two-thirds – allowing the centre to renovate two buildings and complete a new one – will come from European funds. Once reconstruction is completed, the institute will be able to focus vigorously on a series of important new research projects – including rearing of the rare sterlet sturgeon.
